Default Would be interested too

Thinking of doing both front and rears. What's your dissatisfaction with it?

My guess... He wants more oversteer.

Default The STaSIS folks suggested that the front sway

counters the benefits of their MS suspension. . . and therefore doesn't temper the understeer. So, this will create more oversteer as Jet mentioned.

Default Well it all depends what you want...

Yes the H-Sport set up is really great and a cheap way to increase over all handling performance of the car.

If you have a stock suspension and don't plan to upgrade to a serious coilover system then the H-Sport kit is perfect because it was designed to work with the stock suspension and at its full stiff setting in the rear will change the stock OEM handling characteristics to somewhat induce a bit of oversteer.

Now STaSIS with their coilovers systems have designed their setup with their spring combo to give you a certain handling characteristic based on using only the rear H-Sport sway bar set up or the OEM stock sway bars front and rear. The STaSIS setup tries to remove all the understeer and depending on what you choose to do with their set up in combination with the H-Sport rear you can actually get some oversteer out of the car.
